Who Was That Masked Man?



I beg you, please check out this video from ChessNetwork about an utterly astounding combination played by some unknown player (Black) in an online game against a FIDE Master (White). One of the most amazing combinations I have ever seen. Frankly I can't recall ever seeing a finer combination by anyone, ever. Anyone who can find such a combination over the board is either extremely strong player or using an engine. I hope it was the former.

The Rook move really is amazing, but Black probably fell into the combination after seeing there was a perpetual and daydreaming "if only I could get the bishop in the game"....
